God shall wipe away all tears

Bible Reading: Revelation 21

Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

This is what we look forward to in Christ! Do you suffer from tears? Of course you do because we all live in a world where there is sin. Sin leads to pain and suffering. Our God loves us so much that he came into our sinful world and suffered and died as a man. Jesus did this so that we could be saved and have a hope for a home with him where there is no sin.

Imagine a world where there is no death. Loved ones don't die. People don't have congenital defects that kill them too soon. People don't have car accidents. People don't have cancer.

Imagine a world with no sorrow or crying. There is nothing there to cause it! No broken relationships. No divorces. No loss. No regrets.

Imagine a world with no pain. No sore backs. No headaches. No broken bones. No cancer. No radiation. No needles.

All these things are passed away. These things are all the result of sin and there will be no sin in this new heaven and new earth.

It is God who will wipe away the tears from all eyes. Our loving Heavenly Father will wipe away the last tears from the old creation and when our eyes clear we will see the new heavens and new earth Jesus has made for us.

What a day that will be.

Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

In Christ,
